citric acid
Citric acid is a versatile chemical used in various industrial applications, particularly in metal treatment.
It helps to lower the pH of drilling fluids, ensuring their effectiveness and longevity. Additionally, it is used to remove
cement contamination from drilling equipment and wellbores, preventing damage and extending the lifespan of drilling systems. Moreover,
citric acid acts as a stabilizer for polymers, helping to maintain their integrity and performance. Finally, it is a key ingredient in ion chelation processes,
which remove heavy metals and other impurities from metal surfaces
Product Overview
Citric Acid is an anhydrous, medium to fine white crystal product with a specific gravity of 1.542.
The heavy metal content in this product is less than 100 ppm. Its solubility in water at 68°F is 169 g/100 mL.
Product Benefits
Citric Acid offers several advantages over other acids, making it a versatile and effective
product for various industrial applications. It is readily available ex-stock in Houston and is considered safer to handle than HCL.
The acid reduces pH levels, removes calcium in pre-treatment processes, and is of Indian origin. Additionally, it sequesters soluble iron to prevent polymer
crosslinking and is less reactive and safer than other acids.
The product is safe to handle at drilling rigs and is suitable for use in cementing and drilling, as well as ion chelation processes.
Environmental Considerations
Citric Acid is an environmentally friendly product, making it a responsible choice for industrial applications.
Packaging and Shelf Life
The product is packaged in 50 Lb/25 Kg bags and 2200 pounds on pallets. The shelf life of Citric Acid is 3 years from the date of manufacturing.
This product is an excellent choice for those looking for a multi-functional and safe acid for use in drilling, cementing and ion chelation processes.
